The administration is going to run into a legal bind.

UPDATE: Trump seems to say for the first time that U.S. lacks ability to recover those sent to El Salvador if government deports someone erroneously. Says it’s totally up to Bukele. Seems to leave out that he could … ask Bukele to help fix an error. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Can our government make contracts (like the one with Bukele) that suborn Slavery?
Also, wouldn't the human rights violations & Federal Law violating conditions in CECOT be a disqualifier from being awarded federal contracts?

Based on Secretary Rubio's description, "the agreement," which is, for all intents & purposes, a US Govt contract extends to imprisoning anyone, including US citizens.

Why doesn’t he threaten El Salvador with something, like he uses tariffs with other countries…
Meanwhile Blackwater wants the deporting contract….

Show the world how much shit you can get done!
We are a #BananaRepublic
This entire business stinks to high heaven of corruption and evading the rulings of the courts.
"Frog whines about heat of recently-cold water" is a headline that hides the truth just as "deport 300 alleged gang members" hides the truth that gov't agents will summarily disappear residents off the streets.
From @apnews.com’s Matt Lee earlier reporting: Bukele “said his country would accept only “convicted criminals”
Another reason Trump likes Bukele is "El Salvador
Supreme Court of Justice "reinterpreted constitution's ban" on consecutive re-election." allowing Bukele to run in 2024
Politicians, activists, & journalists have accused Bukele of authoritarian & autocratic governance.

We are kidnapping people off the streets and shipping them to foreign concentration camps with no due process or accountability.
I fully expect El Salvador to "liquidate" the "liabilities" to make room for new inmates, in the form of a new contract with the US for more ICE kidnappees.
Alice In Wonderland legal system.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
The free world—not in denial/delusion, as are an abundance of Americans—will continue to protect itself from NAZI/MAGA America.
